Welcome to Cherokee Heights Montessori!

Guiding and Growing Greatness

As the West Side’s Montessori school, Cherokee Heights is dedicated to guiding and growing greatness in our children. In our Montessori classrooms, each child makes decisions about their learning based upon their individual strengths, likes and learning styles. Through multi-grade classrooms, students develop relationships with the same teacher and classmates over a two- or three-year period. All-day Pre-K is available to help prepare students for kindergarten at an early age. Learn more...

Student Attendance Policy

Students from several classes at Cherokee made May Day baskets and delivered them throughout the school neighborhood. The May Day basket tradition involves filling small homemade basekts with flowers or treats and leaving them for friends and neighbors to find on their doorstep as a happy springtime surprise.

School Profile

Communication and collaboration are key ingredients to the success of our students. Our teachers use a variety of formats, such as newsletters, notes, phone calls, email, and conferences, to keep you informed about your child’s progress and classroom happenings. Please check your child’s backpack often so that you do not miss out on important news. - Melisa Rivera
